"THE BRONX — Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. plans to spend more than $3 million to help build roughly 800 units of affordable housing throughout the borough in his budget for the 2017 fiscal year.

'From new units for low-income seniors, veterans, the formerly homeless and more, our allocations this year will help a wide range of individuals find and keep an affordable home, right here in The Bronx,' Diaz said."
